Summary
“Conrad,” she whispers into his chest, voice blurred at the edges somewhere in the soft haze between drunk and dreaming. “I think I’ve loved you my whole life.”
He doesn’t move, doesn’t dare breathe. He can’t even allow himself to believe that he heard her correctly. Instead, he just pulls her closer into him, fingertips ghosting slowly down the bare skin of her back while he presses his mouth into her hair. Already mourning the fact that he might not remember these words in the morning. He doesn’t check if she’s still awake.
“Me too,” he whispers into the dark.
OR: AU where Susannah died when Belly was 11, and the Conklin-Parks move to London to process their grief. 12 years later Belly is settled into a PhD program, with a flat of her own, a cat, and her safe group of people.
Until one day her PI messages her about the MD/PhD student joining the lab from Stanford....

Summary
This season was supposed to be Isabel Conklin’s fresh beginning: gowns, suitors, and the chance to write her very own love story.
She never expected to be named the Diamond, or for all of London to suddenly want her hand! How nerve-racking!But to Belly, none of them compare to Conrad Fisher.
Her brother’s best friend. Her next-door neighbor. The boy who became a man while studying abroad. The first boy she ever loved, and the man she knows she cannot have.
She is the Diamond of the Season, and Conrad takes it upon himself to show her not only the rules of courtship, but the desires society forbids between man and woman. And between them lies every rule society has ever written and every single one they are destined to break.
(Basically a Bonrad love story with a Bridgerton take on it :P where a very jealous Conrad decides it’s a brilliant idea to “teach” Belly everything about love, courtship, and ... desire ... and well .. a very starstruck Belly happily agrees!)
